Hi,
It seems like I'm the only non-german guy here (Swedish), but with the thing you guys got going on I think that's just a matter of time! I heard about the wlanThermo on the openHAB forum and it took me less than 10min to decide I needed this! I'm an electronics/embedded engineer as a profession and Kamado griller in spare time so I have fed the idea to make something like this myself, but never found the time...
Now, to my (first) question:
When I added the cloud connection I had to enter a username/password of admin/admin (found using google translate on the wlanthermo.de page). So I got the cloud connection up and running. But I'm not that fond of leaving a password with admin/admin! So how do I change that? I found something about a /admin page, but when I go to <IP of nano v1+>/admin i get a quick form (in german...) asking me for a new password (max 10 chars). After entering 10 chars and pressing the button I get redirected to /setadmin instead of admin and there I get an error 404, no such page... Am I on the wrong path or is there a bug?

Best regards
Henrik Kjellberg

Hi Henrik, welcome to our community!
Yes, it's a bug. If you currently want to change the password, you must manually send a POST request to /admin, with autentification and parameter "wwwpw", e.g. with Postman.

Ok, thanks for verifying.
I assume we are taking about a REST command?

Yes. The button normally sends a POST request with the content of the field as parameter "wwwpw" to IP/admin. Currently sent to IP/setadmin, that doesn't work. So you have to create the POST request manually and send it to IP/admin. Or you are waiting for the next update, where the bug will be fixed.
